Deja vu contest finalised

Blog Posted:3/2/2023 6:39:00 PM

Thank you dear soupers, for your outstanding contributions. The contest has been finalised, based on the line of inquiry being addressed in the poems submitted, as it resonated with me. As such, the results are no reflection on poetic skills of contestants, which far exceeds my own and I admit the judging was purely subjective. 

This contest was in fact prompted by several déjà vu experiences I had during my life, eerie almost and defying logic. Thus 'not only is the universe  stranger than we think but stranger than we can think' as Werner Heisenberg had once observed.

Thank you for the interesting contest and it's refreshing to see your honesty in judging subjectively. It's such a personal thing to write poetry and possibly would be unrewarding to judge on perceived skill if the resonance isn't there. I am very much enjoying finding poetry written in a way I may not have expected to like. Thanks again for the interesting prompts and freedom to express wherever that takes people.
